NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"Yes! We have thought of countless possibilities." Su Qun's eyes became moist again, and his voice trembled with extreme excitement: "I have thought of various ways for the Chinese team to win tonight's game."

"But I really didn't expect that the Chinese team took the initiative when Yao Ming completely suppressed O'Neal on both offense and defense, relying on Yao Ming's direct point-to-point attack on O'Neal and Lin Tian's two consecutive blocks at the last moment."

"Thanks to these successful defenses, the Chinese team has completely secured victory!"

Yang Jian continued, "But we can't forget to attack! Basketball is an offensive sport, a competition of scoring. Lin Tian and Dayao scored all the points for the team in the last 5 minutes! Dayao scored several singles against O'Neal, and Lin Tian's fast break dunks and fouls outside the 3-point line were all the reasons for the Chinese team's victory!"

"Of course, there was also that amazing two-man pass and cut combination! Lin Tian's positioning and Yao Ming's pass behind his head. I think this scene will be engraved in my mind forever. This scene will become a classic and will be replayed in my mind again and again!"

"Team Huaxia, champion!"

"What a pity." After everything was settled, Kenny sighed and looked at Barkley next to him and said, "It was really just a little bit short. Larry and our players have done everything. They have the absolute initiative in most of the game."

"In the last 1 minute and 30 seconds, the American team didn't score a single point! Charles, what do you think?"

"Lin, Yao, and the entire Chinese team performed very well." Barkley also sighed deeply, and then said: "We did have an absolute advantage for most of the game, and we did play very well."

"But at the end, something went wrong with Shaq. I think Shaq was injured, and his performance in the last few minutes was totally different from what he normally performs at. He's much better than he showed."

"Anyone who watched the game will know that this was not the performance Shaq should have performed. I don't know why. I can only say: we tried our best, but the Chinese team played better. They deserved this championship."

"Maybe, we can try again in Japan two years from now? Maybe then, we can change our strategy and try a completely new team?"

"Of course, these are things that will happen later. Before that, what we need to do is: congratulate the Huaxia team, congratulate Lin, and congratulate them! They won beautifully."

After Su Qun was excited, he noticed the situation on the court. He said happily: "Look, after the Chinese team celebrated wildly, the players of the American team also came up. Kidd found Yao Ming, and Artest found Lin Tian. These two pairs of teammates in the NBA expressed respect and celebration to each other."

Yang Jian also said: "It's not just Lin Tian and Dayao. We can see that the players of the American team shook hands with everyone on the Chinese team, including Yi Jianlian, Da Da, Da Ba, Liu Wei, Zhu Fangyu... I think after such a game, the players of the American team will definitely be able to remember all of their names!"

“They deserve it all!”

Su Qun said: "Of course they deserve it! This evening, Yao Ming scored 32 points, 13 rebounds and 6 blocks. He took on his due responsibilities on both offense and defense of the team. He was like an insurmountable wall, guarding the Huaxia team."

"And of course our eternal hero, leader, and captain, Lin Tian!"

“今晚林天再一次拿下了41分11篮板12助4抢断6盖帽的全面数据！这已经不知道是他第几次拯救球队，率领球队在逆境之中取得胜利了！”

"He always stands up to save the team when it is in trouble! Tonight, the Huaxia team was in dire straits several times and was on the verge of collapse at any time. It was Lin Tian who stood up and saved the game!"

"From scoring, passing to defense and rebounding, Lin Tian continued his all-around performance on the court tonight."

"I can only say that it's great that China has Lin Tian!"

"I always say the same thing. If Lin Tian weren't there, the Chinese team, which is at the top of the world, would only be one of the top eight teams in the world and would have almost no chance of making it to the semi-finals."

"But with Lin Tian, ​​we are the overlords of the basketball world! We are the world's number one super team in the past four years!"

"Now, let's look forward to the World Championships in two years! Let's see if the Chinese team can surprise us again in two years!"

"At the same time, let us congratulate our golden generation! Congratulations to them for standing on top of the world once again!"

On the court, most of the American players were relatively relaxed, and not many of them were crying because they lost the gold medal.

Lin Tian and others also greeted the players of the American team one by one and chatted casually.

As for exceptions?

O'Neill.

This big guy, who was always cynical, carefree and casual, always smiling but always considered to be frivolous, was still sitting on the bench motionless until long after the game was over.

He knew very well that the American team was reversed tonight and was beaten by the Chinese team in the final moments. It was all his fault!

He failed to hold down Yao Ming and was beaten by Yao Ming in a one-on-one match!

O'Neal felt unprecedented frustration and loss.

"Am I old? I can't even beat Yao? I was beaten one-on-one by Yao?" O'Neal, who has always been confident to the point of being overly optimistic and likes to be in the spotlight in everything he does, was extremely quiet this time.

"What's wrong, Fatty? Are you scared of being beaten?" Kobe's somewhat annoying voice reached O'Neal's ears.

"Go away. I don't want to argue today, and I don't want to see you." O'Neal was in no mood to play tricks with Kobe today. He felt terrible.

"I said, you should go with me to Olajuwon to learn a few tricks. After that, you will definitely not be beaten by Yao. Or go to David Robinson? Forget it, that guy's style of play is not suitable for you, but if you go to Ewing to practice shooting, you will definitely be stronger."

"Are you done yet? Shut up!" O'Neal's head hurt even more because of Kobe's nagging. He pulled the towel off his head and glared at Kobe, saying, "I don't need you to teach me how to play basketball!"

"I'm not going to teach you how to play basketball." Kobe said seriously, "You can't learn my style of play. Your knees will be ruined."

"FUXX! I haven't hit you in a long time, you're itching for trouble, right?" O'Neal glared at Kobe, staring at him. He was really frustrated and wanted to hit someone.

"I just want to say that no matter if you were beaten by Yao or not tonight, you are the most dominant big man in NBA history in my heart! I think the two of us can definitely win the championship!"

“Maybe next season!”

"Okay! Next season!" For some reason, after listening to the words of Kobe, that annoying guy, O'Neal suddenly felt a huge motivation sweeping through his heart, and he suddenly felt: I can do it!

At the very least, it can't be worse than Kobe!
This kid has always wanted to seize power and become the boss of the Lakers. O'Neal knows this better than anyone else.

Absolutely not!

I am the number one person on the Lakers!
Let’s not talk about these two inside and outside line partners who were beaten up countless times by Lin Tian and whose relationship became increasingly weird in the process of being beaten up again and again. Let’s talk about Lin Tian.

After this guy defeated the US team again and again, he found Bird early.

"Larry, I told you that you would accomplish nothing without me!"

"Nonsense! I'm going to beat you in the playoffs next season! I'm telling you, Chris is back, and Manu is back too!"

"Although that idiot Tim was beaten to Indiana by the old man, it's enough!"

"See you in the playoffs next season! See how we kill the betrayer."

Seeing Bird's contradictory look of regret for not being able to snatch Duncan, yet trying hard to appear confident in front of Lin Tian, ​​Lin Tian couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "If I were you, I'd quickly look at the draft next year and the year after!"

"See if we can quickly select a true core from among those talents that can make the team rise rapidly."

"Otherwise, I don't think we'll be able to meet in the playoffs for at least five years."

"Do you think that without me, nothing can be accomplished?"

"Don't be so complacent! I'm going to beat you up next season!"

"It's just New York! What's so great about it?"

"The Knicks are a bunch of people, old and young. If you don't know, you might think that the nursing home and kindergarten have been merged! What can you do there? Be a nursing home building manager or a kindergarten security guard?"

"People in New York are not as friendly as us Indians. Even though they love you so much now, if you don't play well in two games, fans all over the United States will treat you as garbage and a jinx and criticize you fiercely."

"Larry, you look like a woman who was dumped by her boyfriend. You can't do anything except cry and shout: How am I not as good as her! I am much better than her."

Lin Tianjian smiled and said, "It's a pity that I didn't bring a camera, otherwise I would have recorded your speech and played it on the screen when I enter the Hall of Fame. It would definitely be the most explosive Hall of Fame speech in history."

"Go to hell! You bastard, I will win the championship before you!"

"Champion or No. 1 overall pick?"

"Go to hell."

Bird finally gave a middle finger and turned away.

He will never come to this sad place again.

"Where's Reggie? And Rick? Where are these two guys? Their good friend won the gold medal, why don't they come to congratulate me? It's really unfriendly."

"They must be crazy to come here like me to get mad at me. Do you think you are popular? Who would be willing to talk to you?"

Bird didn't even turn his head or stop, and he quickly moved away from Lin Tian while talking.

This guy is so owed.

As for Colangelo, who was sitting in the stands, he also had a worried look on his face.

Lost again.

The best coaches, the best personnel, the best configuration.

But still lost.

His eyes were fixed on Lin Tian who was walking back and forth celebrating. This guy had become the nightmare of Colangelo and the entire United States.

They were eliminated in three consecutive world championships and two Olympic Games.

How can there be such a thing!

Colangelo is really having a headache now.

Because as far as he was concerned, Bird didn't make any mistakes that night.

If we have to say something, it was the matchup between O'Neal and Yao Ming that led to the single-point explosion in the fourth quarter.

But...is this Bird's fault?

No one would have thought that O'Neal couldn't beat Yao Ming!

Except for O'Neal, everyone else on the US team did not make any mistakes, nor did they encounter any major problems. No one was a loser.

Even if it was O'Neal, if you asked Colangelo to find a better replacement or successor than him, he wouldn't be able to find one.

In other words, this lineup is the best, strongest and best lineup that Colangelo can find.

From the main players to the substitutes to the coaching staff, there is really no better combination than this.

But still lost.

Is it true that if this guy doesn't retire, we will never win the world championship again?

Colangelo looked at Lin Tian and sighed deeply.

He felt that perhaps the next American team needed to change its thinking.

Everything went smoothly after that. The entire Chinese team went up to the podium and received gold medals once again. The difference was that this time, after receiving the gold medals and taking group photos, everyone quickly put the gold medals into the collars of their clothes.

No one on the Chinese team wants to go through the painful experience of losing the gold medal again.

too painful.

Next, the entire Chinese team set out together and returned to China.

When they landed, they were once again greeted with a frenzy of welcome and cheers from countless fans.

The Chinese basketball team is now the most popular and beloved national team in China!

"Because of your victory this time, my reform plan has been carried out very smoothly. Many obstacles that I originally thought would exist have become smaller or even disappeared for various reasons."

At the celebration banquet of the Huaxia team in a hotel in the imperial capital, Li Yuanwei looked at Lin Tian and others and said with relief: "If it weren't for you, my ideal would probably just be an ideal."

“But now, I really feel that everything I do is meaningful!”

"Basketball in our country will definitely reach a higher level!"

"Thank you, thank you everyone!" Lin Tian didn't know how big a butterfly effect his team's consecutive championships would trigger, and to what extent Chinese basketball would be led.

But the other chain reactions brought about by the team's championship were something Lin Tian could never have imagined.

That is, after returning to China, the players of the men's basketball team received a lot of business.

Various endorsements, performances, various commercial activities, ribbon-cutting and other activities.

Even people like Al-Suwaidi and Liu Wei, who have good images, have received several TV and movie scripts, asking them to play themselves and play roles such as basketball players.

Of course Lin Tian also received it. As the team leader, a world-class top star, and also the one with the best appearance in the history of Chinese sports, he received more commercial endorsements and film and television scripts than all other people combined.

Lin Tian also selected a few of the best endorsements and took them on.

For example, China Life Insurance signed a lifetime endorsement contract directly with Lin Tian, ​​competing against its neighbor China Life Insurance.

For example, a few years ago, Lin Tian quietly bought a large number of shares of 'Joy City Entertainment', which is the familiar 'Huanyu Network'. Now Lin Tian has become the largest shareholder of this Korean company.

Now a basketball game produced by this company is about to be released on the market, and Lin Tian naturally went with the flow and became the spokesperson for this game.

This is the classic online game in the minds of countless people: "Street Basketball"!
At least in the next few years, every player will see Lin Tian’s face on the preparation interface when they open the game Street Basketball.

This game will inevitably become the most popular online sports game in China and even in Asia for many years to come. The recharge income brought by various costumes, skills, characters, etc. will make Lin Tian earn a lot of money.

In addition to these two biggest businesses, Lin Tian pushed forward many scripts.

One of them had him play a Tianwu man in a TV series as the final BOSS, and he was given a lot of cool skill names in the drama.

There are all kinds of whirlwind dunks like Kanglong Buhui and sliding steps like Landie Youyun. There is also a cripple in it who carries a bayonet and stabs people when playing basketball.

This TV series sounds really cool and awesome.

Lin Tian was so annoyed that he didn't even dare to take a closer look at the remaining notebooks, and quickly got on a plane and ran away.

Who knows if there will be something like "Basketball Man", "Basketball Captain" or "Ballers League" for him to shoot next.

The waters of the film and television industry are too complicated, and Mr. Lin is a little unsure of himself.

I, Mr. Lin, am too lazy to even work in Hollywood, let alone this mere Chinese film and television industry?
Apart from being interested in having affairs with various actresses, he is really not interested in making movies and TV shows.

It’s better to stay away from trouble!
It is worth mentioning why almost all Chinese players have received a large number of business and even film and television scripts?
Because when everyone was making a lot of money and having a great time, Zhu Fangyu was drinking alone.

The little brother was dejected.

No one looked for him, or almost no one looked for him.

After he returned to China, only a few fighting clubs and martial arts schools, as well as a few companies with social backgrounds preparing to hold conferences, approached him. The rest...

Well...it can be said that nothing was gained.

Zhu Fangyu looked in the mirror, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. Why was his little brother A Lian so busy, but he had nothing?
What's the difference? I can't figure it out! I'm so unhappy!
…………

After Lin Tian returned to the United States, this time he didn't have to transfer and landed in New York. Then he was picked up directly by Dolan, who was so happy that he almost jumped for joy.

"It's Cuban, top quality." After Lin Tian got into Dolan's extended Lincoln, which was well-known to all New Yorkers, Dolan enthusiastically handed him a cigar: "Try it."

"Not interested." Lin Tian shook his head and did not take Duolan's cigarette. Instead, he leaned back in the car seat and asked, "What activities are coming up next?"

"This is an event that will allow you to get to know the true charm of New York City!" Dolan patted Lin Tian on the shoulder, with an expression that said, "We are family, you know me, I know you, and everyone knows you." He said, "It's a completely different experience to stay here for three or four days every time you come to play away games and to live here for four years."

“Only by living here for a long time can you truly understand its charm! As long as you have money, connections, time and hobbies, you can get everything you want in New York City!”

"I'm not afraid that you have strange tastes, I'm afraid that you have nothing to desire!"

Looking at Dolan's excited expression, Lin Tian couldn't help but look forward to his life in New York in the next few years. It will definitely be a very happy 4 years.

(1802 million words omitted above)
At the end of September, after a month of extravagant, debauched and happy life, Lin Tian finally drove to the Knicks' training hall.

The annual training camp is about to begin!

After this month's training camp, the new NBA season is about to begin!

During this month, Lin Tian only visited less than one-fifth of New York.

There are so many fun places, you really have to take it one step at a time.

But Lin Tian is not in a hurry, as it's still 4 years.

When the contract expires in four years, I, Mr. Lin, will let everyone know what the fucking New York City nightclub weather vane and the Big Apple City travel compass are!

But of course, Lin Tian didn't just have fun and be unrestrained during this month. He also did not give up on his training and maintaining his condition.

At least when the training camp started, Lin Tian's muscular body was no worse than that during the Olympics, and he still maintained his weight at 91KG. As he got older, although Lin Tian had the "Evergreen Rune" to protect his body, he still chose to lose weight so that he could continue to maintain his condition.

Prepare for a rainy day!
"Lin! Long time no see!" On the way from the parking lot to the stadium, the first person Lin Tian met was Carmelo Anthony, who had a small mustache and the black man's signature furrowed hairstyle.

This guy who ranked second in last year's Rookie of the Year voting and showed signs of becoming a top scorer in the future in his rookie year looked at Lin Tian with his signature smile on his face.

"Didn't we just meet three days ago?" Lin Tian smiled and clapped his hands with Anthony. "Amare was there too! Did you see that guy? I saw that he gained a lot of weight during the offseason."

"He can jump." Anthony laughed and said, "That guy is a monster. Even if he is wearing a 30-kilogram iron ball, he can still jump up and complete a 360-degree turn and slam dunk."

The two walked towards the stadium while chatting.

As soon as he walked into the locker room, Lin Tian immediately noticed a lot of familiar faces.

The team's two veterans: Charlie Ward and Alan Houston are now sitting in their seats. In the past 10 years, Lin Tian has faced off against these two many times, and has defeated them and the Knicks several times in the playoffs.

Except for the time in 99 when the Knicks made a comeback due to injuries, Lin Tian was the biggest victim of the Knicks in the remaining years.

"It's like a dream." Ward smiled, stood up and clapped his hands with Lin Tian, ​​saying, "We just became teammates."

Houston, who did not change his clothes, said with a bitter face: "My knee is broken again, so I can't participate in the training camp. The doctor said that if I'm lucky, I can return by the end of November."

"It's okay, it's all planned." As for Houston's injury, Lin Tian really had it 'all planned'.

He even felt that if this guy could play in December, let alone February, the Knicks would be lucky this season.

Anyway, in Lin Tian's mind, this guy's mission is not to play basketball, but to teach Anthony and Stoudemire, two future top mid-range masters, how to shoot, so that their shooting skills can improve by leaps and bounds. This would be a huge contribution on his part.

As for Ward, this tough and direct guy is also a representative among the old-school players. His ability is not very strong, but he is experienced and has a solid style. He is a good player in guarding the locker room.

A few people were chatting in the locker room, when suddenly a loud and somewhat harsh sound of music came from outside the locker room, and then a pair of high school students from the team walked into the locker room shaking their heads.

Amar'e Stoudemire, who will begin his third year in the professional career this year, and Josh Smith, a talented high school student who the team just selected with the 13th pick in the first round.

"You guys came so early." As soon as Stoudemire entered the stadium, he found that several bigwigs of the team had arrived. He quickly turned off the huge speaker in Smith's hand and greeted everyone with a smile.

Smith was obviously not very smart. He looked at Stoudemire with a bit of dissatisfaction and said, "Amare, I'm not satisfied yet."

"What a sh*t." Stoudemire kicked Smith on the butt and said to him, "Call someone, rookie."

Smith finally reacted, took off his sunglasses, looked at the team leaders and said, "I'm Josh. I'm good at running, jumping, rapping and dunking. I hope you like me and pass the ball to me. I guarantee that every dunk will be one of the top ten."

"Okay, I like dunks the most." Lin Tian grinned, clapped his hands and said, "Let's go and meet our guys. I've heard people training on the court. Let's go join in the fun!"

A few minutes later, Lin Tian brought several rookies and veterans of the team to the training ground. As expected, there were already several people here. Looking at the appearance of these guys, they had obviously been training for quite a long time, and they were all sweating profusely.

Lin Tian immediately recognized the "Martial Saint" Steve Jackson and "Ba Ye" Matt Barnes who were in a one-on-one duel, as well as the "Turkish Cannon" Mehmet Okur who was practicing 3-point shooting with the trainer.

And the 'real Sakuragi' Gerald Wallace, who was alone in the corner, constantly practicing sliding and moving back and forth to practice basic defensive skills.

These players on the Knicks will be able to perform well in big and small roles in the future and find their own place in the league.

What they have in common at this time is: cheap!
None of these guys had any fame, nor did they have any outstanding battles worth mentioning. Even when Jordan's Bobcats were selecting players from various teams during the expansion draft, they didn't fancy these guys and didn't choose them.

But in Lin Tian’s eyes, these people have another thing in common.

ruthless!
Definitely a new generation of New York gangsters.

It might even be worse than the previous generation.

After all, the previous generation of New York gangs did not have a top fighter as capable as Lin Tian.

I don’t know how Dolan put together this lineup.

How did Walsh find such a group of top-notch players from the garbage dump and the marginalized people in the league when Dolan clearly stated that he would not spend any money?

Walsh: It's so easy! When I choose people, I just look at their faces and tattoos! If they look ruthless and are obviously villains, I sign them! If they have so many tattoos that you can't see them on their skin, I sign them! If they have connections with gangs and have a shady background, I sign them!
As for why do this?

It's just Dolan's words.

"Signing these animals that other teams don't want, it saves money, and Lin likes them! He will definitely like playing with this kind of people! When the time comes, these will be the magic weapon to attract Lin!"

Of course, it was later proved that this magic weapon was not a magic weapon. Anyway, Lin Tian didn't care or pay attention to it. He didn't even talk to the Knicks about how to play and future plans and development.

When signing the contract, Lin Tian only looked at one thing.

money!
The Knicks offered the most money, the most off-court opportunities, and the most business opportunities, so Lin Tian came to New York.

As for whether the group of people Dolan gathered within the team were gangsters or humble gentlemen like Hill, Lin Tian didn't care at all.

No matter whether they are birds, beasts or poultry pets, I, Mr. Lin, can’t I handle such a group of little Karami?

Isn't that an insult?
Lin Tian and his group that entered the stadium are actually the most important group of people in the Knicks team now, and they are also the last group of guys to arrive at the training hall.

After seeing them coming, almost all the players at the scene walked towards this side quickly.

They have all been in the league for a while, so when it comes time to pay respects and acknowledge the boss, they are very clear about who has the final say in this team, or even in this league.

Well...the only one who didn't come and was still practicing alone was Gerald Wallace.

This guy didn't even see anyone coming and was still sliding around.

But no one thought that this guy was performing on purpose or anything.

He has been like this for the past few years.

The main player is the one who works the hardest but has the worst results.

I couldn't find my feeling at all and could never get a place in the team.

"Gerald!" Seeing that everyone had gathered together and only Wallace was left, Lin Tian shouted and called him over.

Wallace suddenly heard someone roaring and quickly turned his head. Then he looked around and realized that everyone had gathered in the stands over there. So he quickly jogged into the crowd.

Seeing that everyone was present, Lin Tian cleared his throat and said, "From today on, our season has officially begun. My rules are very simple. When you are not playing, you can have fun however you want. When you are playing, there are only two principles."

"Don't commit crimes and cause trouble for the team, and take me with you when you go out to play, so we can have fun together!"

"But when playing and training, everyone must complete all training on time and in the right amount. In my team, I will not allow anyone to miss training or be late or leave early for any ridiculous reason!"

"Anyone who wants to take leave must tell me in advance, report to me in advance, and give me a reasonable reason."

"I don't care what this team was like before, but now, this is my team, and my team must have rules! Because after I came here, I only have one goal!"

"champion!"

"Okay, I've finished what I'm saying. Who's in favor, who's against?" (End of this chapter)
